Instead of adding another element to our homepage I’ve decided to put show updates here in the blog section. Enjoy!
Well, we’re back from another great show in Wilton, CT. First off, I’d like to thank all the customers who came out to support us and the show overall, and a special thanks to those who braved the chill of an early Saturday morning to participate in early buying. We had the best early buying Wilton show yet, and we obviously couldn’t and wouldn’t do it with out you, the faithful client.
Next I’d like to thank Marilyn Gould and the Wilton Historical Society for organizing the show and making it the smoothest load-in and load-out so far. Even though the show was a bit smaller this year than last the quality of the artists did not suffer at all. There was some great work we saw (and purchased!) from the Shooners, the Cobles, Will Kautz and Around the Bend Willow furniture.
So, without any further prattling on from me, here are some images from the show for those of you who missed the event, and for those of you who were there but missed early buying!
Just about everything pictured in the booth shots and individual shots found new homes with happy customers, but the Chess Pieces, Angel, and Mermaids were particularly popular. We are still taking orders for Christmas, but time is running out and we’ll need to have a cut-off sometime soon – mainly due to the amount of Custom Commissions we have committed to. Try saying that phrase three times fast! So if you’d like a special gift for someone you know – or for yourself! – let us know soon.
Also don’t forget, if you are in the Southside Virginia area we are going to open up our studio showroom to Bryce Ritter and Son Furniture and Around the Bend Willow Furniture on Dec. 6th and 7th from 10 till 5. We’ll put a link up to the show card and map as soon as we get them in, or you could sign up for our e-newsletter (below) and we’ll send all the info direct to your inbox!
Winter has snuck up on Fall here in old Princess Anne County and beaten it about the head and shoulders with a cold hearted vengeance. We had tomatoes and peppers still on the vine up until the past weekend, but I’m afraid they have been denied a chance to make it onto a dinner plate. We actually had snow flurries here yesterday – which is about as normal around the farm here as a day off. We may actually get some *gasp* snow this year.
Just as long as it’s after December 7th!
Thanks!
Jac
